SEGUNDO, Calif (AP) - Art Shell, who spent his entire 27-year NFI. career with the Raiders, was fired Thursday hv the man who made him the first black head coach in the modern NFL Shell, a Hall of Fame tackle, was fired by Los Angeles owner A! Davis and replaced by assis tant Mike White "He was one of the great con tributors we have ever had." Davis said. Davis said he wants a Super Bowl title and needs a new coach to get there "I'm not the coach here, I don't want to be," Davis said when asked about his hands-on approach. "I'm the owner of the team, it's my team. "I go to practice twice a week 1 might yell something occasion ally in practice. During a game, 1 might make one or two sugges tions through n courier. Philoso phy-wise, there's no question I like to throw the ball down field." And that's fine with White. "He is going to he involved." White said of Davis He might oven give mn a pretty good tongue- lashing if he wants something changed We're going to use the Haider philosophy, which is to throw the tmll deep That philosophy will be there " Shell played for the Raiders in Oakland and Los Angeles from J 968-82 and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1989 He became an assistant coach with the team in I<>83. Shell's overall record with the Raiders, counting playoff games, was 56-41. They made the play offs in three of his five full sea sons. "We want to win the Super Howl," said Davis, whose Haiders were the most recent AFC team to at i omplish the feat — ill 1984. "I felt if we were going to get there, we would have to change the environment I offered this job to no one else "I’ve known about Mike White for 40 years ! watt hud him grow, become an assistant coach. His history, his records, are tremendously unique. I think he comes extremely qual ified, he has a vibrant personali ty." Davis wouldn't divulge terms of White* coni rat t. saying only, "It * not for one year and not for five " Davis said he told Shell of the change Wednesday night "We spont an hour, two hours, feminist ing." Davis said "Art is a part of rav life He's going to do well, he's going to tie OK." Shell spoke briefly before leaving the Raiders' headquar ters more than an hour before the new s conference "I'm going to look for another job," he said I want to stay in coaching." It's been reported Shell might hook on with the Miami Dol phins as offensive line coach. White takes over a team that has won only two playoff games suit e its third Super Howl vtt to ry 11 years ago ’This is a challenge, believe me," he said.
